Technological innovation and improvements are integral to the introduction of the new Power Conversion product platform. New product features are being developed based on customer experience in order to improve product performance, availability, and reliability. The new RXi-142 hardware and HPCi controller platform will replace our RXi-042 in all new product and upgrade paths for legacy hardware replacements.
RXi-142 CONTROLLER The RXi-142 controller has been developed to meet Power Conversion's stringent requirements for Drive &Automation applications across all business segments. The RXi-142 features a flexible architecture, advanced HPCi platform & high-reliability computing. TheRXi-142 is the 2nd generation of the RXi family, following the RXi-042 and shares many components, features, and functionalities with its predecessor for troubleshooting and maintaining legacyMV7/SD7 drive controls.
UPGRADE PATH FOR LEGACY RXi-042
The RXi-142 shares the same mechanical chassis, footprint, and dimensions as RXi-042.There will be a visible label to distinguish between 042 and 142.
There are 3 significant developments:
New Intel dual-core CPU. Migration to the newer VxWorks@ 7Operating System, running with a new version of HPCi firmware and tools. Enhanced cybersecurity to comply withIEC62443-4-2
Customers are advised to use the latest HPCiV7.x to take advantage of the latest cyber enhancements.
Migration of Rxi-042 to RXi-142 will depend
on HPCi firmware installed on site:
RXi-142 can replace existing RXi-042hardware running HPCi V5.7 or higher without changes to the software. Installations running HPCi <V5.7 may need to upgrade HPCi drivers/libraries to run on the RXi-142
